Is there any utility in LabVIEW or LabVIEW add-on that does scheduling of tasks?

I am trying to use LabVIEW to automate a process using various instruments. I need some utility that does the scheduling of tasks for me.

Hi VipersView,
What you are looking for is TestStand, which is the successor to the LabView TestExecutive toolkit. It is much easier to use and yet much more robust at the same time. You can create your test steps in virtually any language, including LabView G, C, C++, VB, Delphi, and so on. It also provides the ability to run tests on UUTs in parallel and as batches, while at the same time synchronizing the use of shared resources. TestStand is excellent for modularizing your automated test process and creating full test procedures that are adaptive and reusable.
Here is the product page for TestStand, I highly recommend downloading the demo and looking at the tutorials and manuals for more info.:

  • What was the exact functionality of "Device Control/Status.vi" (version 5)? Is there any vi in Labview 6.1 which performs the same tasks?

    I have a vi developed in LabVIEW 5.1 and I want to upgrade it to LabVIEW 6.1. So I must replace "Device Control/Status.vi" with a newer one but I do not know wich vi performs the same tasks in v6.1

    The Device Control/Status.vi is included with LabVIEW 6.1 as part of the serial compatibility VIs. You can find it by opening up and looking at
    Instrument I/O -> I/O Compatibility -> Serial Compatibility -> Bytes At Serial Port.vi
    Also, if you open up the VI found in
    vi.lib/platform/_sersup.llb/serial line ctrl.vi
    it will expose the functionality of Device Control/Status

  • Is there any object in labview that contains a list of data for the user to select (selection one at a time) or add a new data?

    Is there any object in labview that contains a list of data for the user to select (selection one at a time) or add a new data?

    List and table controls -> listbox..is that what you are thinking of?
    The listbox presents the user with a list of options, and you can set it to only accept one selection at a time...Adding new data to the list can not be done directly by the user but if you make e.g. a text control and a button you can programatically insert new objects described in the text box when the button is pressed...(see example).
    If you need more than one column you have the multicolumn listbox. If you want the users to write new entries directly yu can use a table and read selected cells using it's selection start property to read what cell has been selected.

  • Is there any incompatibility between Labview 8.5 and Traditional DAQ?

    Hi,  I`m using a DAQPad 6020E and the Labview 8.5 Daq assistant don`t detecte my DAQ when a try to create a new task (to create a new virtual chanel). But MAX detect the DaqPad. So, is ther any incompatibility between Labview 8.5 and traditional Daq? Do you know how can I resolve this?
    Thanks.

    First, you posted to the wrong board. Measure is an old add-on for Excel.
    Second, there is no incompatibility between LabVIEW 8.5 and tradtional DAQ. There is an incompatibility between traditional DAQ and DAQmx which is what the DAQ Assistant uses. Make sure that you install DAQmx if your device is supported by it. Otherwise, you will not be able to use the DAQ Assistant.

  • Is there any possibility in LABVIEW to Create a release mode EXE like VC++

    iam krishnaprasad. iam new to LABVIEW.
    i have 1+year experiance on VC++6.0.
    Is there any possibility in LABVIEW to Create a release mode EXE like VC++ .
    if there please suggest me how to create  it..
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    First, you must include you VI inside a LV project. This can be done automatically by selecting New Project from the Files menu in that (any) VI.
    LV will ask you whether to include any open VI to be added to this newly opened project. Click Add & thats it. Now save this project in a location of your preference.
    Then, in the Project Explorer window, right click Build Specifications >> New >> Application (EXE) or Installer, as per your requirement.
    The former will create you an EXE only while the latter will bundle all that needed for an installer (mainly LV run-time engine of the version under use).
    If you create the EXE alone, then you need to install the LV run-time engine of the corresponding version manually in the target PC first, before trying to run you application (EXE). Else, it will throw error & wont run properly.

  • Is there Any utility there in 9iAS instead of OWSCTL in OAS?

    Dear Dear All
    In OAS(Oracle Application Server) A command line utility, owsctl, is provided to start, stop, reload, and show status of Oracle Web Listener, Web Request Broker and Cartridge processes. You can also use owsctl to print out the version of a cartridge name. Can Anybody tell is there any utility provided in Oracle 9iAS exactly similer to owsctl does.

  • S there any Utility industry company is using PP-production planning & exec

    ear All,
    Is there any Utility industry company is using PP-production planning & execution module and CO-PC product costing module ??
    Meaning.. any Power generation/Transmission/distribution or water production/Transmission/distribution company is using SAP PP or APO for their operation business processes.
    Our client is actually an integrated Utility having very much integrated product lines like Processed Sea water for cooling, Process water for Industries, Potable water & Power for the communities/ industries.
    Please let me know.. as we are planning to implement the PP and CO-PC for product costig..
    As I know Tata chemical, Gujarat-India is using SAP PP module for their captive Power generation.(I have worked there as SAP CO consultant). But there is no transmission and distribution as such.
    But production processes are covered by PP and product costing CO-PC is also implemented and it is giving very accurate cost per unit both for plan side and actual side.
    regards,
    George

    Hello George,
    I would not be able to provide you much detail about the PP solution as I was taking care of the controlling part. The BOM of power and water were defined as you have mentioned only thing we had additionally was Gas was also mentioned in the BOM since we had 6 gas turbines. But all of them were mentioned as not relevant for costing. So there was no cost being calculated from the material side. We had formula planning template (CPT1) that used to calculate the costs under the following heads which were defined as activity types.
    a) Gas
    b) Employee Costs
    c) Consumables / Supplies
    d) Operating Expenses
    e) Depreciation
    These components were planned at a initial price in KP26 and the quantity for them (except Gas) was units of power generated (for cost component it was 1 MW and for actual based on the quanity in the product cost collector). Power cost estimate used to be created at the begining of each period with help of this template and per MW cost was used in valuating the power generation in each of the product cost collectors (the turbines were defined as separate work centers as well as product cost collectors).
    In the actual execution the power material used to be generated in all the product cost collectors and the usage of gas was confirmed. The template used to be executed in the month end (CPTA) and the same would allocate the costs posted in the power generation cost center to the product cost collectors (the amount would be the power units generated multiplied by the rate mentioned in KP26 for Employee Costs, depreciation etc. and for gas it would be Gas units consumed multiplied by the rate mentioned in KP26 for activity Gas). The power material generated would then be issued to the generation cost center along with the usage of gas for power as well. The next step is execution of the splitting transaction which would allocate the amount posted in the cost center to the various activities and then the actual price calculation would be carried out for the activities and the product cost collectors get revalued with the actual price. Upon settlement of the product cost collector to the generation cost center you would have the power material issue cost + settlement account. The amounts posted in these two accounts would be transferred to the water cost center using a assessment cycle with SKF that mentions the usage of water in power and another assessment cycle taking the costs in water cost center with help of SFK that quantifies usage of water in power. Now the power material cost + settlement amount - sent to water + received from water is sent to another cost center called power - distribution and from there the amounts including any distribution costs booked therein is transferred to other user cost centers using usage units defined as SKF.
    What I feel later is the water activity could have been done before settlement and an activity type could have been defined for that purpose.
    At the moment I can remember this much and would be happy to answer any more query which you may have. That was a good design though it had lot of scope for fine tuning.
    Kind Regards // Shaubhik

    Dear Pavan,
    Thanks for the reply..
    Yes, as you rightly mentioned..It is not very simple...Utility production is bit complicated than normally believed by majority.
    But for captive production of power & water, we had used PP/CO-PC successfully for may be more than 12 years(in tatas)..
    What was done in Tatas, power as a material(finished good) and BOM/ recipe for it in the PP.
    (because we had used PP-PI there) and Power's BOM water is an input material and in Water production BOM power is an input material..i.e recursive BOM and system (PP/CO-PC) will take care this iteration or this give and take.
    And main product was input for itself in its third stage.. And steam is input for itself and input for power/water and opposite also true..
    And we got 5 different steam, like 50 pound, 100, 250 pound ..Still with all these complexities PP/CO-PC is able to give actual cost per unit accurately. So for production/generation standard PP/CO-PC will work fine...we are 100% sure...but for transmission and distribution is there any better way or solution model ??
    But the main thing or the question is that whether you are able to get the actual qty of production consumption in process.
    Then system (PP/CO-PC) will take care this iteration or this give and take.
    And on the actual side of product costing, we have to use the material ledger functionality, wherein we can use multilevel settlement by which we can settle the actual cost variance at each stage of production to the next stage of production.
    But the first reaction, when people hear about utility...it is very very simple...you are only producing one 2-3 final products..only 2-3 technologies involved...
    But reality is quite different...and currently all the major utility company's production processes are outside SAP system, even when they are using SAP for all other functions/departments...but their main function is to produce water/power is outside the system..and like any other company production/generation processes are the most repeated activities in their company.
    And if you see..even two repair works in say SAP PM module processes are different to each other..(still we are using a SAP module-PM for that to have historcial data and to learn from our from experience)
    But production of desalination water from desalination plant is same today, tomorrow...day in ,day out...it is same..
    And if we are saying we cannot co-relate input quantities with output quantities..we are essentially saying we have no control over production processes and we don't want to standardize our most repeated  activity(production)
    Anyway, since production processs is out of the system means, no quantitative data-production related  is available in the SAP system and most of the organisation using excel for reporting of quantitative data-production related..

    Is there any Sound card 5.1 include stereo mix that working with MacBook Air such as Creative Labs SoundBlaster X-Fi Surround 5.1 Pro Entertainment System ? and if there any another sound card can you tell me what is it please ? Thank you.

    Okay, I did my best searching and I couldn't find anything that matched all your descriptors. I did do a search on both decoder numbers. SB0256 returned very little results, but with SB0466, I was able to find this ebay listing:
    http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...6_fvi%3D&_rdc=
    This card isn't a Champion like you suggested. And with my complete lack of knowledge, I don't know what I/O dri've bay means. But since it is PCI and the decoder matches the number you gave me, this card should be adequete, right?
    Whether it works or not, my search indicated it might be very hard for me to find that card (or any PCI card for that matter). Everything I saw was out of stock. I know this is a forum for Creative, but are there any other manufacturers that will allow me to accomplish my goal, either with current cards, or discontinued cards? Thanks again
    Oh, and I will vote on that thread. I probably won't wait for them to release the decoder since I need it now, but I still believe Creative should be giving the customer what they want
